Summary

Staff briefed the board on a proposal to shift the jurisdictional boundary on Trailwood Lane to the centerline to ease development constraints for Kronenwetter, and reported negotiations could include a water-purchase agreement expected to generate over $100,000 annually in sales for Rothschild; no action was taken.

Village staff told the board the current municipal boundary lies on the east curb of Trailwood Lane, which requires Rothschild approval for ingress and egress and has hindered development in the adjacent Village of Kronenwetter.

Administrator Ryan VanDeWalle and Public Works Administrator Timothy Vergara said a proposal under discussion would move the boundary to the centerline of Trailwood Lane so maintenance, upgrades and signal work could be shared between the two villages. As part of negotiations, VanDeWalle said talks include Kronenwetter purchasing water from Rothschild, which staff estimated could produce more than $100,000 per year in water sales for Rothschild.

The board took no formal action and asked staff to continue negotiations and provide details, including cost-sharing and maintenance responsibilities, before any transfer or agreement would be considered.
